Yeah 2 hours is too long a wait but morning will probably be the same time, i'm sure you are right.
I don't know exactly what pre-op diet I will do, I've never been good at calorie counting and the milk diet sounds like torture. So I think I will stick with the diet Dr Chris recommended - 2 week low fat. I just hope I can avoid the temptation to have a blow out before hand.
I had my first consultation with Dr Chris back in August, seemed like it would be forever until December then but now pre-op diet is only 3 weeks way :) but I choose to have a UK consult before commiting to travelling to Belguim for my own and my husbands peace of mind.
sndeall - Dr Chris operates at the Jan Portals hospital in Brussels, I'm not sure how far that is from Brugges but I don't think it's too close, as Brugge is on the coast and Brussels more central.
Oh I forgot to mention, I have a few dutch speaking friends and will be getting a basic lesson in useful phrases like where's the loo and how much is that please? before I go, will pass them on lol
